Chronic pain is debilitating and tiring. It limits your activity and joy of life, creating a reduction of flexibility, strength and stamina. Ongoing pain creates fatigue, insomnia, mood changes, disturbances to your digestion. It increases your stress levels and sets in motion depression, anxiety, anger and frustration. It creates a vicious cycle as chronic pain creates depression and depression increases pain.
What can be done
Acupuncture treatment can help reduce your pain and help manage a permanent condition. Light regular stretching, low impact exercise, and anti-inflammatories.
How Acupuncture Helps
Acupuncture stimulates electrical impulses in the body and the flow of endorphins, (endorphins are the bodies painkillers).
It activates the pituitary glands and hypothalamus, activating these glands in a way that alter the secretion of hormones.
Stimulates blood flow and tissue repair and signals the autonomic nervous system in regulating breathing, digestion and heart rate.
